Trump is just playing politics.
He nominated him thinking the Democrats will not vote him and in turn used it against them

See as him resemble Igbo with that light complexion and flat skull like Nnamdi kanu; you can tell the same blood flowing through him from Igbo ancestors. Yorubbas above fighting and arguing, does he look like you people? You are Hamite black, not Black Hebrews like Igbos and African Americans.
don't derail the thread.

Ok..thought Collin Power was..but it seems he was just the joint chief of staff ( our own equivalent of chief of defense staff ) and then the secretary of state...and National security adviser..

So this is correct..

Congratulations to Gen Brown

JOINT CHIEF OF STAFF IS NOT THE EQUIVALENT OF CHIEF OF DEFENSE STAFF. IT'S EQUIVALENT IS CHIEF OF GENERAL STAFF, A FIRST AMONG EQUALS.

they said African American service chief and not Secretary of State

He meant that General Colin Powell was the Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff from 1989-1993. He wasn't referring to his tenure as secretary of state.

Go back and read that profile, not only secretary of state. He had been in military leadership positions before secretary of state.
So, we can just try to differentiate between the position held by the two, which one is higher.

Good news..
Now they are listening.
George Floyd did not die in vain.
Brown confirmed.
The Marines and Navy banned the Confederate flags already.
Police reforms underway too.
Companies are rushing to up their diversity and inclusion spots.
Companies are increasing resources to help disadvantaged communities in which they operate.
E.t.c.
Protests really does wonders.
More wind for the black and other minorities communities.

YES, I AGREE WITH YOU. SHAME TO THE TRUMPTARDS WHO ARE TRYING TO SPIN THIS AS A VICTORY FOR TRUMP.

Powell was never a service Chief. He move straight from General to JOINT CHIEFS OF STAFF

A service chief is head of any of the militaries' units, Airforce, Navy and Army

Brutai is a service chief for example.

Abayomi is Chief of Defence Staff (equivalent of JCofF)

Good one Trump2020 cheesy

I have a big problem with toilet wipes like you. When bugs like you come to the United States, you never vote Republican. You know instantly that the democrats are your friends. It is the democrats that try to help immigrants float along until they can obtain permanent residence or citizenship. It is the democrats that pursue legislation that fosters equality, that targets immigrant-households and alerts them that the government recognizes them. When you are poor, hopeless, and downtrodden in America, it is the Democrats who look out for you and give you hope. The Republicans are all about conservatism, whose definition seems to loosen or tighten depending on what their present leaders are up to.

It is only JEALOUSY, IGNORANCE and SCHADENFREUDE that cause Nigerians to support Trump and his mean immigrant policies, over the Nigerian, Kenyan, Mexican, Venezuelan, Brazilian, Polish, and other immigrants in the US. You're jealous because your life is FC.UKED up in Nigeria and you can't stand the fact that other Nigerians, like you, have escaped the vicious cycle of poverty and disease in Nigeria. How can any right thinking Nigerian support Trump? Trump who treats people who look like you like sh.it. Dem swear for you ni? Onye iberibe.

You're suffering from cognitive dissonance.

Some Nigerians are arrogantly foolish. There'sa big difference between a commander and a service chief.
A commander can take charge of a military operation or a take command of a military group within the armed forces. The service chief is in charge of an entire wing of the armed forces like the Navy, Army, Airforce, Space Force etc.
